Transforming Education: Bio-Pedagogical Mediation and the Recognition of the Human Being in Holistic English Language Teaching
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper aims to analyze and delve into bio-pedagogical mediation and the recognition of the learner as a human being with feelings, emotions, and experiences. It emphasizes that these aspects should be acknowledged by the mediator to facilitate accurate interactions in the holistic development of English language teaching as a foreign language. Learners need to be valued and recognized to have the motivation to learn and awaken positive emotions in their learning process, as well as to have the encouragement of metacognition and autonomy that empowers them to take control of their learning. Some proposals are presented to improve pedagogical mediation practices.
